7. If a song had controversial lyrics, would it stop you listening, downloading or purchasing it if you thought it was catchy? Yes. i have consciously made the decision to stop listening to pop music - the likes of that which is played on radio stations such as 2day fm etc.

8. Would you still watch a music video if it contained frequent sexual images? No. but i dont watch them to begin with.

9. Do you think children are exposed to sexual imagery too young? Yes

10. Do you think music videos are too sexually suggestive when it comes to the way women are portrayed? Yes

i think there's a direct link between sexualisation of women within the pop music sphere (whether it be female artists or male artists with females in their video clip) and persisting gender constructs.

I cum blood lyrics
Swollen with liquid
Ready to burst
A load of my lymph
Will quench this dead body's thirst
One month in the grave
twisted and half decayed
She turned a putrid yellow
I pissed in her maggot filled asshole
Fucking the rotting
My semen is bleeding
The smell of decay
Seeps from her genital cavity
The smell was unbearable As I unburied her
I cum blood from my erection
I feel it run
down her throat, swallow
Eyes glassy and vacant
body dug up to play with
Skin greasy and naked
tonguing her rotted anus
I need a live woman
to fill with my fluid
A delicate girl, to mutilate, fuck and kill
her body exceptional
she thought I was normal
but I wanted more
I came blood inside of her
choking on the clot
gagging on the snot
gushing blood, from her mouth
bloody gel leaking out
Body buried in a shallow grave
Unmarked for none to find
The sickness I have left behind
Undetected go my crimes
The greatest thrill of my life
Violent, climax Serging serum on my skin
Back from the dead
I am resurrected to spew, putrefaction

3. Do you listen to popular music? Yes

4. Do you watch music videos? Yes

5. “Shush girl shut your lips, do the Helen Keller and talk with your hips.”
Do you find these lyrics offensive? Not exactly. Tasteless, yes. Offensive, no

6. “If you like it then you should have put a ring on it…”
Do you think these lyrics objectify women in any way? No, but I do object to general concept of the song.

7. If a song had controversial lyrics, would it stop you listening, downloading or purchasing it if you thought it was catchy? No

8. Would you still watch a music video if it contained frequent sexual images? Depends on the video, and what else I'm doing at the time

9. Do you think children are exposed to sexual imagery too young? Yes, but I don't think it screws them up as badly as people claim. The group girls my age who were exposed to the Spice Girls at a young age and are, on the whole, well adjusted non-whoreish girls are proof of this.

10. Do you think music videos are too sexually suggestive when it comes to the way women are portrayed? Some of them are. Mostly rap ones. But there are plenty of them that are fine.
